The next morning Rei awoke still laying on Makoto. She stretched and sat up now realizing she was naked. She looked at Makoto and smiled softly. "You look so child-like and innocent when you sleep Mako-chan…" Rei gently brushed a tassel off Makoto's cheek. Makoto smiled a little and opened one eye. "Morning Mako-chan."
Makoto smiled and opened her other eye before sitting up and stretching. "Morning Rei-chan. So what can I make you for breakfast hmm?" Rei shrugged slightly. "Well you have till I get out of the shower to know ok." Makoto brushed her fingers across Rei's cheek and got out of the bed and walked into her bathroom and opened the door to her shower. She took her bra and boxers off and got in closeting the door behind her. Makoto sighed as she let the hot water wash her worries away.
After about twenty-five minutes Makoto walked back into her room to find Rei wrapped in the towel from last night. "Bout time you got outta there. I left my cloths in the bathroom on top of your hamper." Rei blushed a little seeing Makoto wrapped in her own towel and her hair n visible skin wet.
Makoto chuckled. "Gomen ne Rei-chan if you would have said something before I went in there I would have tossed them out to you."
Makoto now had her back to Rei and as Rei looked at her, her eyes grew larger. "Hey Mako-chan how long have you had that tattoo?"
Makoto chuckled. "Which one I have four." Makoto lowered her towel revealing a tribal band with a rose with a sword going through the middle of it in the center of the band along her lower back, on her left shoulder blade said "Jupiter" in Japanese Kanji with her astrological symbol, and on her left upper arm was a tribal dragon.
Rei's jaw dropped. "How about all of them."
"I've always had um. They just disappear when I transform. Minako and now you are the only ones who have seen all four. Haruka and Michiru have seen my dragon and my kanji n my symbol. Only cuz her and Michiru have a condo down here and they saw me on the beach in a bikini top n shorts."
Rei stood there and chuckled. "Well I like them. Now after we get dressed I'll take you up on the offer for breakfast." Rei disappeared into the bathroom and slowly got dressed. Once the door closed to the bathroom Makoto slowly got dressed herself. Makoto was just buttoning up the shirt to her school uniform when Rei emerged. "Well if we still have time for it breakfast would be great." Rei smiled and tied Makoto's tie.
Makoto smiled. "Yea we have time what do you want?"
Rei smiled. "How bout an omelet with a nice hot cup of coffee."
Makoto smiled. "You got it Rei-chan."
The two girls walked to Makoto's kitchen and Makoto started the coffee and then made Rei her breakfast. Rei sat there quietly smiling to herself and eating the specially made breakfast. Rei stood and put her empty plate in the sink and looked at her watch then glanced at Makoto sitting at the table drinking her coffee. "You about ready to go Mako-chan?"
Makoto stood up and smiled. "Yea let's go Rei-chan."
Rei smiled and the two girls walked into Makoto's garage and got into her hunter green Jeep wrangler and drove to the college campus. The Senshi were all finally attending the same college so when Makoto and Rei showed up together Ami looked at them and blushed. Usagi timidly walked over to the two and talked softly. "You guys I'm really sorry about what I did I know it was wrong and I deserve to be hated, but truth is I miss hanging out with you two, I miss talking and I miss Rei-chan yelling at me all the time and –"
"Let me guess you really miss my cooking." Usagi looked into the cold emerald eyes of the mighty thunder Senshi and took a few steps back her fear present in her eyes. Seeing the fear in Usagi's eyes made Makoto soften her look some what. "Look Usagi-chan I just don't want to deal with this right now ok I have way too many tests today. Talk to me this weekend about all this I'll meet you at the arcade ok." Usagi nodded and received a cold glare from Rei as Makoto and her walked by.
Ami walked up to the two girls and smiled. "So you spent the day with Mako-chan huh. I went to the temple looking for you and your grandpa said you were out for the evening." Ami smiled a little. "I'm glad it was Mako-chan you were with last night I was a little worried about you."
Rei smiled a little. "Well it's nice to know I still have 2 true friends in the inner Senshi. But yes Ami I did go to Mako-chan to talk. To tell you the truth I'm glad I did."
Ami blushed a little. "Well me and Mako-chan will always be your friend Rei-chan."
Rei smiled and looked at the blue haired girl. "Thanks Ami-chan. I knew I could count on you and Mako-chan." Rei looked at Makoto and blushed a little looking at the taller girl's side profile. Rei watched Makoto as she spoke to Ami and smiled faintly then looked down to try and conceal her blush. Makoto caught the blush out of the corner of her eye and smiled. Soon the three Senshi were on their way to class. While they were walking Makoto brushed her fingers along Rei's hand and when Rei looked at her she simply winked, causing Rei to blush once again.
